A warm, comforting apple pie with a tender crust and cinnamon-spiced filling, perfect for family gatherings or cozy dessert occasions.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Heat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Mix sliced apples with cinnamon and nutmeg.
- Spread the apple mixture evenly in a greased 10-inch pie plate.
- In a blender or using a hand beater, beat the remaining ingredients (milk, eggs, sugar, Bisquick, margarine) until smooth, about 15 seconds in a blender or 1 minute with a hand beater.
- Pour the batter over the apples in the pie plate.
- Sprinkle with streusel topping.
- Bake until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 55 to 65 minutes.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider adding a splash of vanilla extract to the batter. You can substitute half of the apples with pears for a different taste. If you don't have margarine, unsalted butter works just as well. Be sure to slice the apples thinly for even cooking. If you prefer a sweeter pie, adjust the sugar to your liking.
Serving Suggestions
Serve this easy bake apple pie warm, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for added indulgence. It pairs beautifully with Ethel's Cream Gravy if you're looking for a savory side. Consider serving it alongside a cup of coffee or spiced cider for a cozy dessert experience.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover pie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place slices in the microwave for about 30 seconds or until warmed through. Alternatively, you can warm individual pieces in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes for a freshly baked taste.

Can I prepare this pie in advance?
Absolutely! You can prepare the pie a day in advance and store it in the refrigerator. Just make sure to cover it tightly. When ready to serve, simply reheat it in the oven or microwave as needed.
